Next Steps (Class of 2014)

Graduating seniors will soon begin their lives after Lawrence. Many are planning to continue their education. Others are taking the first step into careers. Still others will embrace scholarships. Judging from what they've said, all will miss professors and classmates. Here are just a few who shared their plans with us.

This program will provide me with knowledge specific to the world of business, provide networking opportunities, and offer the opportunity for a fulfilling final project. I have been working intensively with career services in pursuit of a career in the world of international business and believe the Tuck Business Bridge Program is an excellent first step on that path.

I am looking forward to continuing my internship after graduation at the MicroInsurance Centre, where I will be able to learn more about international development and the communication strategies of an organization, all the while improving my skills as a fresh college graduate in the real world!

Lawrence is the type of place where everything that they say in the brochures matches what is done: The class sizes are wickedly small; the professors go way above and beyond to help students; and all the students are passionate and quirky! I truly feel ready to take the next steps - both to graduate school and beyond!

Lawrence gave me a great deal: a superb education, fantastic friends and colleagues, and new perspectives on learning and life. I greatly appreciate the opportunity to help provide the same experience for my fellow and future Lawrentians!

Lawrence has prepared me with four years of communications experience, and an education centered on exploring the intersections of literature and visual art. Thanks to Tim Spurgin, Elizabeth Carlson, and my friends on the Lawrence faculty and staff. I am indebted to their support, and appreciative of their enthusiasm.
